Facebook ads seem to be a relatively simple solution for most businesses to build an online, social media presence. In fact, Facebook ads are a simple and easy way to build your social media presence and engage your fans. At first glance, Facebook Ads may seem intimidating, but they are relatively simple to build and to manage.

The assumptions of ease are all based on the premise that you have a Facebook page (profile) for your businesses built and populated. If you don’t, get you digital agency to assist you in starting this simple process. Social Media Marketing (SMM) is continuing to grow. Given that Facebook has over 800 Millions users, this means that it’s the largest possible audience in any circumstance.

Here are three reasons to give Facebook ads a try this year:

  1. Ads appear to the customers you target
  2. Implement with any budget
  3. Social sharing with fans & friends

Keep in mind your Facebook fan page is free to build and manage. As well, for a nominal cost your page can be monitored and populated allowing you to keep in touch, provide information, introduce specials, build opt-ins and build your online presence without the large costs associated with traditional marketing tactics and media.
